Building your first colony will be pretty similar to the current state of things in 0.6.3. The basic mechanics of progressing from slings to bows and matchlock guns are still there. There is one important new feature though: happiness. Keep your colonists happy, or recruitment costs will skyrocket and the speed of scientific research will decrease dramatically. To keep your colonists happy, you'll have to produce and distribute "happiness items" like candles, jewelry and luxury meals. This is mostly done and thoroughly tested, we just need to dot the i's and cross the t's. Science needs better names and descriptions, some items need tooltips, minor stuff like that. After you've unlocked matchlock guns, you'll be able to research airships. These can be used to explore the world. The new world generation has long been finished, and as you've just read, the basics of airships are there. Now we need to improve the flight mechanics, and add ways to unlock the airship with research and produce them in-game. Once you've arrived in a distant biome, you can start a second (or third, or fourth, etc) colony and use it to produce unique items like silk, porcelain, sugar or coffee. Most of this works. You can start multiple colonies, and the Far East, the Tropics and the New World all have their own unique content. We've also got functional traders. There are still a couple of things left to do. Some items still need icons and a decent place in the tech tree. And currently, there are no scientific or cost barriers to starting new colonies. We'd like to add "multiple colonies" as a scientific unlock after airships. We also like to add some kind of "Colony Starter Packages" which contain a decent amount of food, ammo, common crafting ingredients and building materials to kickstart new colonies. Obviously, these Colony Starter Packages have to be produced by the "mother colony". As discussed last week, we believe the game needs a good reason to build very large colonies with lots of colonists. We'll add some simple expensive scientific research for end-game colonies in 0.7.0, and perhaps even a feature like jetpacks. Later on, we'd like to add a better end-game with more industrial content. We still believe we are on track for a June/July release!
